Post SBRT CAT Scan
In June of this year I had stereotactic body radiation therapy for a slow growing tumor in my left lung which was presumed to be a recurrence of a previous NSCLC in that same area. Biopsy was not an option due to the tumor's proximity to the aorta. I had a follow up CAT scan earlier this week and the

Capsular Contracture from Implant
At first I chose not to have
reconstruction
for my missing
breast
. In July 2019, I changed my mind. Now I have Capsular Contracture. Have any of you dealt with this? I really do not want to undergo anymore surgeries so I'm hoping for non-surgical treatments that have been successful!

Bone Mets
Exactly a year to the day of my initial diagnosis of metastatic cancer, imaging found extensive bone mets in my femur and hip. It is the osteoblastic type. I'm set up for physical therapy to work with the soft tissue on my leg due to the pain and also radiation. Scheduled a PET scan to see if there

Delayed Ibrance
Has any one out there had success with Ibrance after taking only Fulvestrant for 6 months and then adding it in.? I had a delay because of my fear of Covid (I was going to NYC at the height of the outbreak there for radiation during the first 4 months) and then 2 unexpected surgeries in September and

Vinorelbine (Navelbine)
I had an appointment with my oncologist this morning to discuss my latest scan results. Unfortunately it wasn’t good news as it showed significant progression in the liver and a small amount in the bones. This wasn’t unexpected as I’ve had a steady rise in both liver enzymes and cancer markers. The eribulin

Faslodex
Good morning ladies. Just a few questions about Faslodex. I've been getting these injections now for over 40 months and now it seems as tho my nurse is running out of viable spots to inject. This past Fri. I got 2 more but 1 was placed very high up and has caused me considerable pain while in bed.

Scan results stable
I have just had the results call from last weeks CT scan, just as a refresh I was sent for another scan only 2 months after the one that showed chemo hadn't really worked as a few of the lesions on liver had progression whilst on it so I'd been put on letrozole asap and have continued with H&P infusions

Has anyone had SBRT?
Hi everyone - so my mom was diagnosed with Stage IV metastatic breast cancer with 2 tumors in her bone - T2 & L4 regions. She is considering doing radiation - an oncologist said today she has 2 approaches - a conservative approach and then SBRT. Risks of SBRT are nerve damage, paralysis, and bone damage

New here; lumps from Fulvestrant; fatigue solution
I came here first because I thought Ibrance + Fulvestrant, which have worked miraculously on my stage 4 MBC, had suddenly stopped working after 18 months. After a week-end of panic due to results of PET scan, received a call from oncologist saying she thought the radiologist was wrong; it was nothing

Liver Injury and tamoxifen
I recently checked on my understanding that tamoxifen use was not associated with liver dysfunction. It seems that I misremembered what I read. Although other cancer medications may have more serious negative effects on the liver, tamoxifen use also may result in liver problems. Some of you may find

Xeloda failed after only 2 cycles
I have to say that I am beside myself. My first scans on Xeloda show increase size and number in Liver Tumors. This is the 3rd drug that has failed for me in the past 6 months. Ibrance, then Piqray now Xeloda. I am really worried. I spoke with my oncologist yesterday and there are 3 classes of IV Chemos
